    We seem to have been receiving a number of HTTP requests similar to the 
    following lately:
    
    168.10.36.63 - - [22/Oct/2001:14:07:59 -0700] "GET 
    /_vti_bin/owssvr.dll?UL=1&ACT=4&BUILD=2614&STRMVER=4&CAPREQ=0 HTTP/1.0" 
    200 20677 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0)"
    
    168.10.36.63 - - [22/Oct/2001:14:08:00 -0700] "GET 
    /MSOffice/cltreq.asp?UL=1&ACT=4&BUILD=2614&STRMVER=4&CAPREQ=0 HTTP/1.0" 
    200 20677 "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0)"
    
    
    Does anyone know what these requests are looking for?  I am assuming 
    that they are harmless requests from IE 5 assuming that it is talking to 
    an IIS or exchange server, but I cannot find anything that mentions what 
    these files actually are.
